Chapter 375 Extra - Good Night
During the days when Ye Mu was about to give birth, Song Yanzhou found ways to take leave, stayed by her side all the time, and accompanied her to the hospital.
The time of delivery was not much different from what was expected. Even Ye Mu turned pale from the pain before delivery. However, she was different from ordinary people after all. Even though she had a new body, she was often injured when she was driving mechas in interstellar combat. Therefore, compared with other women who were crying and waiting for the moment of delivery, Ye Mu was relatively calm.
She just pursed her lips, her eyes were slightly red, and her emotions were somewhat affected by others. Due to hormonal reasons during pregnancy, her personal emotions were not so easy to control.
Ye Mu was able to maintain a relatively stable mood throughout the pregnancy. In addition to the fact that she had arranged a plan long ago and executed it in an orderly manner with Jiang, Song Yanzhou would insist on chatting with her after get off work every day, asking her about her day, telling her everything he could about his time in the army, or discussing with Ye Mu the upbringing and education of their unborn child.
Song Yanzhou was emotionally stable, always maintaining an addictive gentleness. In addition, he tried every means to find his own place next to Ye Mu and alleviate the feeling of being replaced by Jiang as a partner. Every time he returned home, he seemed to become unusually clingy.
In addition, Jiang would tell Song Yanzhou about any small changes in Ye Mu, and then give him some guidance to teach him how to alleviate Ye Mu's physical discomfort and distress.
Therefore, Ye Mu had his best assistant Jiang taking care of him during the day, and Song Yanzhou caring for him at night. Although the whole pregnancy process was much more inconvenient than usual, it was not too uncomfortable.
During this period, Ye Mu even went to the research institute several times and worked with Jiang to purchase some small electrical appliances that would be needed for raising the child.
Technology is developing rapidly. As the due date approaches, Ye Mu has roughly inspected Jiang's body again and has already planned to replace his body with a new one.
He has used this machine for so long that it has suffered considerable wear and tear. It is time to replace it with a new one.
At this time, Song Yanzhou was accompanying Ye Mu, wearing casual clothes, with extraordinary demeanor and unique appearance. Both male and female nurses who came in would look at him a few more times, and then look at Ye Mu who was being nervously guarded by Song Yanzhou.
All those waiting to give birth here are military wives, but only a few of them have their husbands with them. Most of them are women at home or sisters. Song Yanzhou stands out among the group of female comrades.
Some people looked at her with envy, but they felt that they could not compare to Ye Mu's ability. After all, Ye Mu was a genius who had been featured in the country's newspapers and news countless times. Even though her husband was a soldier, they gave him leave and asked him to look after her.
In the end, I can only think that if I want to blame someone, I should blame myself for being useless. My man does not have such a high military rank, does not have such great power, and does not have enough freedom.
However, as Jiang came in and asked Ye Mu about his well-being, with an appearance of obeying orders, everyone's eyes changed again, and they felt even more wronged and hurt.
Jiang asked some more professional questions. Ever since Ye Mu started preparing for pregnancy and took him to develop medicine, Jiang has been systematically understanding and learning the medical technology and knowledge related to fertility in this era.
Combined with some general knowledge in this area in the interstellar world, we can more accurately judge Ye Mu's current situation.
What the two said was incomprehensible to others. Song Yanzhou could only hold Ye Mu's hand, stay by the bed, and wait anxiously in his heart.
When Ye Wansheng learned the news, he quickly handed over the matters at hand to Lin Dan and rushed to the hospital. Seeing Song Yanzhou staying by Ye Mu's side, he felt relieved and was quite satisfied that Song Yanzhou was there at this time.
In the evening, the other members of the Ye and Song families got off work. As long as they were in the old city, they all came to the hospital and took turns to check on the mother. They didn't want to disturb other women who had just given birth, so they didn't stay for too long.
Song Yanzhou had originally wanted to move Ye Mu to a separate delivery room, but Ye Mu refused.
She stayed here because she actually wanted to see what the childbearing conditions were like for women of this era.
She did not release the medicines she took herself or the auxiliary medicines she would use to improve her body after giving birth, nor did she allow anyone other than Jiang to interfere.
As for whether to announce it or not, Ye Mu is still hesitating.
Another important reason why she did not feel so uncomfortable during her pregnancy was that she used medicine to improve her physical condition, making it suitable for conception and nurturing a newborn, which reduced discomfort.
So her own experience was different from that of other women of this era, and she wanted to come and see it for herself.
but……
Ye Mu turned her head and moved closer to Song Yanzhou's arms. Song Yanzhou quickly hugged her tightly, sat on the bed, lowered his head and kissed her face and said:
"Jiang previously judged that the baby would be born around nine o'clock tonight, and it wouldn't take several days."
It was only when he came in that he realized that there were several pregnant women in the delivery room whose cervixes had been dilated for a day and a night but had not yet reached the required level. At first glance, they all had tears in their eyes and were crying loudly. Song Yanzhou's heart was also lifted.
They came to the hospital this afternoon. Fortunately, according to Jiang's judgment, Ye Mu would not suffer as long as they did. ,
It was rare for Ye Mu to be able to smile at this time. It was not because he didn't feel any pain, but because he felt more at ease with Song Yanzhou by his side. Jiang would naturally arrange everything.
Song Yanzhou lowered his head and rubbed her forehead and said:
"Rest in my arms for a while."
Ye Mu nodded and closed her eyes to rest in Song Yanzhou's arms. Song Yanzhou wiped the cold sweat from her forehead due to the pain from time to time.
Half an hour later, Jiang brought a midnight snack and a medicine that had been prepared long ago.
Song Yanzhou carefully asked Ye Mu whether this medicine was supposed to be used in the plan, and then he drank a little bit of it first. After making sure that the medicine was fine for ordinary people, he let Ye Mu drink it with confidence.
When there was only half an hour left until nine o'clock, Song Yanzhou mentioned going into the operating room.
Ye Mu pursed his lips and was silent for a while, then said:
"In any case, the birthing scene isn't going to be very pretty, so it might be better if you wait outside."
She might even be in a very embarrassing situation. In that situation, she would certainly not care about anything else. However, Song Yanzhou was not in that state, but a bystander.
No matter who you are, you probably don’t want others to watch you in such a miserable and embarrassing state.
Although Ye Mu knew that in this era some people seemed to use the word "great" to describe childbirth, just like cutting flesh to feed an eagle was a good deed and even praised by believers, wouldn't it be bloody for others?
The word "great" only describes the act of childbirth in all aspects and cannot change its essence.
Therefore, when Song Yanzhou proposed to go into the operating room together, Ye Mu was somewhat tempted, but he still politely declined rationally.
Song Yanzhou naturally knew what she was thinking. He held her with one hand, letting her lean on him to be as comfortable as possible. He pinched her palm with the other hand, lowered his head and whispered in her ear:
"When you were training us, I was almost crawling on the ground and couldn't even stand up, and you were still watching the show from the sidelines."
Ye Mu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this:
"I feel bad about it, but if you don't do that you won't be able to meet the requirements. You won't get better feedback."
Song Yanzhou hummed softly:
"So, you are about to give birth to our child. If I can't accept you like this, I should have stopped you when you made this decision."
They are partners and lovers who have decided to spend their lives together. Every change and decision should be discussed with each other to reach a common frequency.
Song Yanzhou said:
"You know, my tolerance is different from that of ordinary people."
"I can accompany you to face any pain."
"Twilight, let me join you."
Ye Mu was persuaded by Song Yanzhou and let him accompany her into the operating room. Song Yanzhou stayed beside her and carefully wiped her sweat, bent down to kiss her from time to time, and said some encouraging words with the doctor.
Due to years of missions and his job, Song Yanzhou is very sensitive to the smell of blood. Looking at the blood flowing from her body, the tip of his nose was almost covered by her blood, and Song Yanzhou's eyes turned red with anxiety.
Blood and wounds always go hand in hand. It is impossible for a person to bleed without being injured. Song Yanzhou has even killed people during a mission. He has seen the blood of the enemy many times, and it is inevitable to be injured and bleed during training.
Bleeding and getting injured were almost commonplace in his cognition, but when the bright red color dyed Ye Mu's fair skin red, even though the doctor had always said that it was within the normal blood discharge range, Song Yanzhou only felt cold all over, and his hands were shaking slightly. He had to lower his head and press it against Ye Mu's forehead from time to time to feel her body temperature and breathing, and listen to her voice to feel a little relieved.
Until the child was born, Song Yanzhou followed Ye Mu who was pushed into the ward without stopping, and seemed not to hear the nurse calling him. Jiang looked at the nurse who chose to follow the newborn.
Naturally, a separate ward was arranged for Ye Mu after giving birth, and Chen Yanzhi and Ling Xun consciously stood guard outside.
The two were curious about the little one born by Ye Mu, but naturally, everything was based on Ye Mu's safety.
The child was being watched by the hospital nurses and was also under Jiang's watch, so he was naturally safe enough in the military hospital.
After giving birth, although Ye Mu still felt uncomfortable, Song Yanzhou, under the guidance of the nurse, gently completed a series of care and asked about Ye Mu's condition in a gentle voice. Ye Mu gradually felt a little sleepy.
After covering her with the quilt, Song Yanzhou stayed by Ye Mu's bedside. Seeing that she seemed to have fallen asleep, he gently stretched out his hands to lightly wrap around her neck, lowered his head and buried his face in her neck. Only then did he dare to reveal the suppressed worry and panic in his heart, as if he was still frightened:
"You lost a lot of blood."
Because of this blood, every extra minute of the birth process felt like someone was standing in front of him trying to take the life of his beloved.
After leaving the operating room, it wasn't that he didn't hear the nurse asking him to go see the child, but Song Yanzhou didn't really want to go. He just wanted to stay alone with Mumu for a while and check on her condition.
In a person's life, there are always people of different importance.
Until this moment, looking at Ye Mu's sleeping face, Song Yanzhou lowered his head and leaned on her neck, listening to her shallow and steady breathing, before he finally felt relieved.
In fact, Ye Mu had not fallen asleep completely yet. He was in a light sleep. He vaguely heard his trembling words and moved subconsciously. He was too lazy to open his eyes and raised his hand to put it on his shoulder.
Song Yanzhou opened his eyes slightly, looked at the snow-white bed sheet and her dark hair, and said softly:
"I just heard the nurse say it's a daughter. Didn't you say before that you wanted a daughter? Then can we not have another baby after this?"
Ye Mu smiled softly: "Even if I use drugs to improve my body, I won't become addicted to reproduction."
She murmured sleepily:
"What name should we give it? Let Jiang inform my brother and parents tomorrow. It's too late now."
"Okay. Go to sleep, I'll keep an eye on you."
Song Yanzhou contacted Jiang with the smart computer, while holding Ye Mu's hand and standing by the bed, he reached out to turn off the lights.
After a while, Ye Mu's breathing became noticeably steadier, and she seemed to have fallen asleep completely. Song Yanzhou gently placed the bunk bed prepared by the hospital next to the bed and unfolded it, and fell asleep beside her. He reached into the quilt and held Ye Mu's hand, so that Ye Mu could call him in time if she had any needs at night.
"Goodnight, Twilight."
